Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

They all breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time understood the purpose of Wang Jinnian's shot: to make them accept this incredible improvement and change as soon as possible, to make them adapt to the existence of this new type of firearm, and at the same time to explain the question of whether the Alchemy Bureau would refine the elixir.

"No wonder Lord Wang said something like, 'Who would make elixirs if they were serious?' Although His Majesty does recruit sorcerers, Taoists, and alchemists from all over the world to make elixirs, he probably completely despises what those Taoists and alchemists do and doesn't take them seriously at all, which is why he said that."

There was a pause.

Wu Zhenhai suppressed his anger.

His eyes flashed, and he smiled and nodded, echoing Wang Jinnian's words: "I understand! Between alchemy and spear training, of course spear training is more interesting! With such a good thing in existence, what does the illusory elixir mean?"

"Don't worry, Lord Wang. From now on, I and the others will obey your orders!"

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of anticipation, excitement and eagerness to try - he was not only agreeing with Wang Jinnian, but he also sincerely meant it.

With this musket, being able to use it, rounding it off is equivalent to being invincible, unstoppable, and unstoppable! He now has an extremely profound understanding of this. This is something that no soldier among the millions of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can refuse!

Wang Jinnian nodded with satisfaction: "Okay! Since you have all come to the Alchemy Department, I don't have to hide some things from you! Our team will be called the "Shenjiying" from now on! This is arranged, appointed, and named by His Majesty himself! In the future, it will also be the place where His Majesty trusts the most and the elite ace!"

As he finished speaking, more than 2,000 people, including Wu Zhenhai and Kang Yunxiang, couldn't help but show their excitement and whispered to each other: "The Divine Machine Battalion... the elite... the place of the ace..."

They all knew that each of these words represented a bright and boundless future!

before coming here.

They never imagined that they were sent here to guard the gate, but the real purpose was to train them to become the emperor's close ministers and elites! The elite of the elite!

It was like a huge sense of happiness fell from the sky and hit me on the head.

Wu Zhenhai and Kang Yunxiang exchanged glances.

They all clasped their fists and bowed, their voices resounding and full of energy as they spoke: "Your humble servants...will not let down Your Majesty's trust and instructions! For Your Majesty and the Great Ming Dynasty, we will devote ourselves to the cause until our death!!!"

The people behind them naturally reacted immediately.

They all stood respectfully, clasped their fists and bowed, shouting in unison: "We will not let down Your Majesty's trust and instructions! We will serve Your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty with all our hearts and souls, until our death!!!" Their voices were magnificent and passionate, resounding throughout the Alchemy Department's training grounds...

After completing the mobilization meeting to boost morale, Wang Jinnian calmed himself down.

Then he instructed the person beside him: "From now on, we are all brothers in the Shenji Camp. First, take them to familiarize themselves with this place and settle them down."

"Yes, sir!" the person beside him responded.

But immediately, Kang Yunxiang rubbed his back with his big hands with a look of curiosity, and smiled at Wang Jinnian and said, "We are all soldiers, all rough guys. We are not picky as long as we have a roof over our heads and can settle down. We are not in a hurry... Sir Wang, this thing behind you... I have never seen it before, nor have I heard of it. I don't know... hehehehehe, can you let me try it?"

We've all seen the power of this thing.

How could they, who are already good at fighting, not be itching to try it out themselves?

Wang Jinnian certainly wouldn't refuse. He was eager for these men to begin training quickly, so that the Divine Machine Battalion could achieve its true might and scale as soon as possible. This would be a way to live up to His Majesty's trust.

He smiled happily at that moment.

He motioned the people behind him to take out two muskets and handed them to Wu Zhenhai and Kang Yunxiang: "Of course you can try it if you want. I originally need you to throw away those bows and arrows and use these muskets from now on."

Wu Zhenhai and Kang Yunxiang felt something in their hearts.

They each took this "musket" that they had never seen before, and looked at it with curiosity and caution - no soldier could refuse such a thing.

And soon.

Kang Yunxiang seemed to have discovered something.

He gasped in surprise, looked at Wang Jinnian, and said with shining eyes, "Master Wang, the material of this musket... is of excellent quality! If it were used to make a sword, it would be a famous weapon!"

Wu Zhenhai also sighed: "The material of the gun in my hand is the same!"

They may not understand the structure of a musket, but those who wield swords in the army are extremely sensitive to the quality of metal materials.

As for those who had just joined the Alchemy Department, in their eyes, this was good material, rare, and should be used to make famous swords and knives.

For a moment, I subconsciously felt sorry.

Wang Jinnian, however, acted as if it was a matter of course.

He said disapprovingly, "Hey, you two, what do you think is better, a knife or a sword, or a pole?"

Wu Zhenhai and Kang Yunxiang were suddenly shocked: Ah, yes, in front of the musket, what are swords and famous weapons? They are nothing! Great power, long range, fast firing speed... even ghosts and gods can't defeat them!

Without waiting for the two to say anything.

They then heard Wang Jinnian say, "Besides, the material for the gun barrel isn't that difficult to come by. The Alchemy Department has plenty! There's no need to make a fuss, you two captains! Haha!"

Wu Zhenhai and Kang Yunxiang both frowned.

I felt like I'd heard something I couldn't understand again: "Such fine materials, there are... plenty of them???" What kind of outrageous statement was that? Materials that could be used to create a famous instrument must be incredibly rare, right? Otherwise, where did the term "famous instrument" come from?

And Wang Jinnian seemed to see through their thoughts.

He raised his eyebrows calmly and pointed at the people behind him: "Look, every gun is made with the same craftsmanship. Isn't this a lot?"

The two were slightly stunned and speechless for a moment.

It seems like everyone of them has one of these muskets!

Wu Zhenhai swallowed in disbelief and sighed, "How...how is this possible? Where did all these high-quality materials come from?!"

Wang Jinnian paused.

The scene of the steelmakers in the Alchemy Department casually refining one furnace after another appeared in his mind, but he didn't know how to explain it for a moment.

He could only smile and say, "Well... you guys can take your time to look at it later. There are so many interesting things in the Alchemy Department! What you see now is just the tip of the iceberg."

Wu Zhenhai and the others didn't quite understand what was said.

No... a terrifying weapon made entirely of the finest steel, and that's just the tip of the iceberg? What kind of outrageous claim is this?

Wang Jinnian smiled helplessly, "It's hard to explain this in a few words. We need to take our time. Since the two captains are interested in muskets, why don't you try them out first?"

He really didn't want to continue arguing about this issue.

If they really continued arguing, it would take three days and three nights to finish, and he was in a very difficult situation.

Being reminded by Wang Jinnian.

The two men's attention immediately returned to the musket, and they both showed great interest. Naturally, they put aside other doubts for the time being and nodded, "Yes, I really want to try it!"
